Sesta di Sopra is another winery in Montalcino that delivers a powerful and well balanced wine in this important vintage. The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is an impressive effort and a wine that sports a masculine and muscular personality. The nose is redolent of dark fruit, wild berry, died cherry, leather and tobacco. All those components come together in seamless fashion. The wine shows medium density in terms of mouthfeel but very long persistence. This is a wine of immense inner class and elegance.

A tightly wound, austere style, with strawberry and cherry fruit, accented by notes of tobacco, tea and iron, wrapped in a cloak of dusty tannins. The finish is incredibly long, giving a lasting impression of sweet fruit. Be patient. Best from 2019 through 2035. 61 cases made, 15 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
